Frank Dope - Growin' Up Lyrics

This the f*cking take...

Growing Up, prolly different me & you
Never had it all, but I had what I had & what I had got me by
Satisfied with a Ps2
Know mama strived in giving what she ain't have to give
Took some years & took some loss
To understand that privilege
That she provided for my sister & myself

So why the f*ck am I so selfish, I can't figure it out
Unsatisfied with how I played my cards
Want to point the finger, no one around so I point at myself

I'm the reason why I'm so f*cked up
Mentally down & out
I cry a river, cry a lake but I'm still in drought
Cotton mouth, I burn a zip a week
The pain is too demanding please just leave me be

Growing up, growing up
Took some time to grow up
No excuses, we going up

Growing up, growing up
Took some time to grow up
No excuses, we going up

Hide the pain, see it's written all on your face
Hydro plane if the cops ever on our ass, we finna race

I don't know how to talk to people anymore
Close homies, ain't really close like years before

Half assed actions of my past for
Minimal satisfaction be the death of me

I know I got the recipe
Give the best of me, to the wrong things
I don't understand why I gotta play the long game
Happiness in my sight, but I'm in my own way
Happiness in my sight, but I'm in my own way

Growing up, growing up
Took some time to grow up
No excuses, we going up

Growing up, growing up
Took some time to grow up
No excuses, we going up

Sometimes I, feel like I like to wallow in my sorrow
Blue balls fade when she swallows
Living for today, not tomorrow
Time is borrowed & I play with it too much
Not to be bothered
Scared to die, but I still give death a holler

Understand that I'm f*cked & I f*cked up
All my heartaches are deserved
Not to be bothered

I just watch ceiling fill with smoke, manifest days of happiness
Rather than a temporary fix to fill the void
I just want a little girl or boy
To look just like you
We ain't gotta put a label on it, that's for them to do

Tired of hurting, tired of pleading
The world you deserve, I just wanna be by your side when you see it

Growing up, growing up
Took some time to grow up
No excuses, we going up

Growing up, growing up
Took some time to grow up
No excuses, we going up
